Chapter 124
“Where?” Chloe asked. She was suppressing her rage and did not know whether she should vent it out or not.
“Just follow me.” Chase walked out and threw her a pocket folder.
Chloe opened the folder and exclaimed, “D*mn it! When did you set up an entertainment company?”
Chase ignored her and started the car engine.
“It’s a newly established company. You have no human resources and connections. Why would Angelina join your company and waste her time?” Chloe immediately thought of the main point.
“That’s why I am bringing you to look for human resources, Chase voiced before speeding off.
When the car was about to arrive at the destination, Chloe was stupefied instantly and turned to knock Chase on the head. “Did I do anything to offend you? Why didn’t you tell me in advance that we are going to my grandfather’s house?”
It turned out that Chase had stopped his car at Harper’s villa which was located halfway up a mountain.
There was a vivid blood-stained Qilin at the entrance. Qilin was an ancient mysterious Chinese creature.
Chase smirked and replied, “Would you come if I told you?”
Chloe suddenly felt betrayed.
Chloe decided to keep her trap shut later when she met Harper.
When Harper saw Chase, he seemed particularly elated.
During this period, he had been keeping tabs on Chase secretly.
He noticed that Chase’s strategies were simply incredible!
Especially while dealing with the exclusive dealership for the Song family, Chase had executed it perfectly. He had killed a few birds with one stone.
Harper questioned himself if he could do the same, but he realized that he did not have that ability Chase was a prodigy!
This was Harper’s evaluation of Chase.
“Mr Chase, since you came by today, I’m guessing that you have favour, right?” Harper asked amiably.
Chase nodded and went straight to the point. “MrWang, you are the most reputable businessman in the entertainment industry of Golden City. Thus, I am here to get a company of yours.”
Harper was taken aback by Chase’s words. The audacity Chase possessed was beyond Harper’s expectation.
The differences between the pharmaceutical industry and the entertainment industry were too huge.
Harper was dumbfounded for a long while. He wanted to persuade Chase to focus on his medicine business.
But a lump formed in his throat, making him unable to spit out the words.
This was because he suddenly realized that Chase’s shrewdness and judgement was far better than his.
Chase had done many seemingly absurd things before, but the final result was alwaysnsurprisingly convincing.
It was the beginning of another wave of absurdity perhaps…
Harper took a deep breath. “Mr Chase, according to the rules, I can’t help you too much. Well, business is business. Let me ask you first, how much are you going to pay to take over my company?”
The price was the main point.
Chase answered with a smile, “Not even a penny.”
Chloe, who was standing at the side, lowered her head.
What a shame!
It was embarrassing!
She got dragged all the way here to make a fool of herself before her grandfather.
Chase didn’t even want to pay a cent. Then was he going to freeload on Harper’s hard work all these years?
Although Harper was shocked, he asked, “Please forgive my ignorance. What do you mean…”
“The annual profits of Lunanica Media is about one billion yuan, am I right? Let’s do something fun. I’ll sign a bet with you. You let me be in charge of your company for a year. After a year, if the profit does not exceed three billion yuan, I’ll compensate you two billion yuan and then I will return the company to you” suggested Chase.
At this moment, Chloe raised her head and gazed at Chase in horror.
According to what he said, Harper wouldn’t suffer any loss no matter what.
However, how could Chase be so confident?
“Go ahead, Mr Chase.” Harper darted a keen gaze at Chase all of a sudden.
He felt like he was battling with a business tycoon.
It had been a long time since he had this kind of feeling.
“If the profit exceeds three billion, you have to give me the company without any conditions.
My mortgage is the Helping Hands Medical Center. You’ve seen the development of the Helping Hands Medical Center recently. I can mortgage all the contracts to you. That’s all I’ve to offer, Chase continued.
Chloe’s eyes turned cold instantly.
He was going to mortgage the medical centre as well as the contract of the dealership.
What the f*ck!
This guy was using the chain tactic too.
But he played it so well!
Chloe had an urge to pull Ethan over to witness how skilful this little b*stard was Harper nodded and took a deep breath.
Having not smoked for decades, he lit a cigar.
This was indeed a very intriguing bet.
He would either win two billion without putting in any effort.
Or he would suffer a tremendous amount of loss.
It would be up to him to decide.
No!
It might look like it if Harper were to judge it from the surface.
should believe Chase’s counterplay would lead to prosperity…
Or he should act cautiously to protect his reputation.
How arrogant Chase was!
He even dared to take such risks to make this bet.This material belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.
Harper remained silent. He took another the drag of his cigar.
This bet would determine the future of the Wang family.
“Grandpa, don’t be fooled by this guy. He is very scheming, Chloe couldn’t help reminding.
But just as she finished her sentence, she covered her mouth in horror abruptly.
D*mn!
She was set up by this guy again.
Why did this b*stard bring her here?
He just wanted to use her to influence Harper.
It was useless for her to cry over the spilt milk at this moment. She had fallen into his trap.
Sure enough, Harper, who was hesitating, glanced at Chloe in shock. He then slowly spat out a mouthful of smoke. “Okay! I’ll take the bet.”
His granddaughter was in the same boat as Chase. How could the Wang family keep themselves out of it?
Chase curled up his lips. He took out the a contract that he had long prepared and handed it over to Harper.
Chloe kicked Chase’s calf in frustration. “What a conniving guy! You’re so annoying.”
“Chase, I will hand Lunanica Media over to you for a year. No matter how it ends, I will follow what’s written in the contract.” After Harper signed the agreement, he forced a smile.
Chase nodded his head. “Mr Wang, you don’t have to be so uncertain. I believe that you will change your perception of me in less then a year.”
“Do you perhaps have other people to rely on?” Harper inquired doubtfully. “The most an important aspect for an entertainment company is its artists…”
Chloe couldn’t help but pout her lips, muttering, “Don’t worry, Grandpa. Angelina is onboard.”
“Angelina?” Harper began to feel restless.
Angelina was Hugo’s favourite granddaughter.
Harper had thought about poaching her before, but Hugo had been secretly preventing it from happening.
What did Chase have to draw Angelina over to his side?
“Well, Mr Wang, Rest well.” Chase didn’t say much. After signing the contract, he left.
Along the way, Chloe was surrounded by an the air of melancholy. She felt she had been used and was deceived by Chase again.
“For the time being, you will be in charge of this company. In the future, the company will be renamed Lunanica Felina Entertainment. I will take over the position of director tomorrow.” Chase gave the contract to Chloe.
Chloe couldn’t help saying, “It’s two billion yuan. Are you going to spend it like this?”
At this moment, Chase let out a weird chortle.
Watching his response, Chloe’s hair stood on its end.
Chase would never execute a plan that was bound to fail.
Then what was the secret hiding in this scheme?
Chloe was in shock; she racked her brains as she tried to sort out the whole matter from A to Z.
After a while, a chill ran down her spine.
She could not help shivering.
The two-billion-yuan bet was never about the compensation.
Instead, it was…
To monopolize the market!
To absorb all the talents and connections accumulated by Harper and Lunanica Media over the past decades.
That was Chase’s real intention!
